For D'Amato's boxing philosophy, defense is obviously not the theme.
This can be seen from Tyson's game style. Pendulum swings, combinations of heavy blows, continuous feints, and forward steps are the core of Damas' system.
In terms of the rhythm of the game, it is different from most mainstream boxing that emphasizes point-based fighting.
And D'Amato attaches great importance to strength training.
In fact, in the early years, it has always been a controversial topic as to whether boxers perform super-intensity strength training!
why?
Because in the eyes of many people, too big muscles will affect a boxer's speed and agility, and will not be of any advantage in the competition.
But in D'Amato's training system, strength training is very important!
Later, Tyson's success also confirmed that this was indeed effective.
In fact, Xiao Yong did all his own exploration and training in the dream space.
Compared to D'Amato's training, he didn't practice many things as precisely.
For example, after D'Amato took over his training, he provided Xiao Yong with a clearer training direction.
The first neck muscle!
This is actually a position that Xiao Yong doesn’t train too much.
But D'Amato asked Xiao Yong to undergo intensive training!
After that, it’s the legs, waist and abdomen, etc.!
In these positions, Xiao Yong’s training volume has always been quite large!
But since D'Amato took over, he began to squeeze even more crazily.
Tyson once said that he never worried about strength training.
Because D'Amato is very good at this.
In fact, the real parts where a boxer exerts force are completely different from the parts where technical movements are performed. For exerting force, the thighs, hips and waist are the most important.
In comparison, for example, people think that the arm muscles used for punching are not unimportant, but they do not play a decisive role!
In modern fighting, it has become a consensus that turning the body to drive the blow can produce huge power!
D'Amato included a large number of heavy squats, leg presses, lunges and front squats in Xiao Yong's strength training.
And rarely practice bench press and curls.
It is also true that certain muscles in the upper body that are too large will affect flexibility.
Tyson once said publicly: "I am very glad that I have taken the right path. Many people are just the opposite. They train their chest muscles and arms to be like bread, but their thighs are very thin. Whenever I meet such people, I feel
It’s funny, it’s just a moving sandbag.”
This is also Tyson’s recognition of D’Amato’s boxing philosophy!
In fact, when D'Amato became more and more aware of the magic of system space.
His expectations for Xiao Yong even surpassed Tyson!
The reason is also very simple.
To put it simply, normal strength training for boxers requires intervals of rest!
For example, seven days a week, each day has different training content.
Because boxers' muscles need to rest, too high-intensity training will not be able to bear the body.
Muscles need a recovery cycle!
Xiao Yong, on the other hand, has no such worries at all. For him, he only needs to stop training for ten minutes and he will immediately regain his full physical fitness!
You can do the next exercise vigorously, and even the strengthening effects will appear on your body!
This terrifying ability makes D'Amato infinitely passionate!
"Xiao! This is only the twenty-eighth set! You only did two of this set! Are you going to die? Are you a pussy? Tyson was able to do 35 sets back then! Lewis also had thirty-four sets!
"D'Amato was yelling crazily!
Strength training for boxers depends on different movements and the number of times in each group is different.
For example, squats are generally done in groups of 1-6 times.
During this squat process, you need to carry a very heavy weight.
This weight is generally a weight that Xiao Yong can do six to eight times in a row before being completely unable to get up.
Then, do one set of six reps, with a thirty-second rest between each set!
The further you go, the more strenuous it becomes to complete each set. It can even be said that it cannot be completed with willpower at all, because the limits of the body's muscles are there!
In fact, where can anyone do a damn thirty-five set?
When Lewis was asked by D'Amato to do twenty-five sets, he was already crying.
Even though Xiao Yong was used to extreme training that squeezed his body, but later on, many groups could not complete six at all, and could only do two to four!
But even so, D'Amato still asked him to persist!
In normal training, players’ injuries and physical endurance must be considered, but here, D’Amato doesn’t need to consider these things at all!
Xiao Yong's face was red at this time, he was carrying dumbbells on his body, and all the veins on his neck and forehead were popping out.
Trembling all over, I struggled to get up.
He originally thought that his usual training in the dream space was enough to squeeze the limits of the human body, but when D'Amato came, this old guy was even more ruthless than Xiao Yong!
Training volume increased by nearly 30%!
In fact, what Xiao Yong thought was his limit was actually not his limit at all.
Because many times, people are unable to fully unleash their potential.
Just like now, if it were Xiao Yong from before, he would have been comfortably lying in the medicinal bath and feeling the strengthening of his body.
But D'Amato doesn't think this is his limit!
Still standing by, Xiao Yong continued to use words to stimulate Xiao Yong, making him burst out the last bit of strength as much as possible!
In the previous dream space, Zheng Tiequan was just a tool man, completely cooperating with Xiao Yong to do some basic training.
D'Amato has the ability to think independently, so he doesn't let Xiao Yong rest at this time!
In his opinion, this kind of strengthening beyond the limits of the human body can truly make Xiao Yong's body stronger!
Let Xiao Yong's punch become indestructible!
D'Amato's training on Xiao Yong's legs is not static either.
Although Xiao Yong's current weight is very heavy, after a while, he will ask Xiao Yong to use even greater weight.
In that case, Xiao Yong could only do three or four times in one group!
Finally, Xiao Yong completed the leg squat training. After putting down the dumbbells, his entire leg muscles were trembling unconsciously.
He immediately entered the medicinal bath!
Since the emergence of D'Amato, medicinal baths have been used more frequently than before!
Originally, Xiao Yong only used one pair a day, but after D'Amato gave him the ultimate training, he had to do various strength training at least three times a night!
In order to achieve better training results, medicated baths should be used basically every time.
After completing the strength training, it’s time for technical training!
The pendulum swings mentioned before, combinations of heavy attacks, feints, and step combinations are all part of the training!
In the medicinal bath, Xiao Yong felt the comfort of his body.
For him, hell mode is over for now.
D'Amato on the side is holding a tablet computer and constantly watching Mayweather's game videos!
After this period of time, he has become somewhat familiar with this later technology.
After all, the operation is not difficult.
As he took a look, he said: "This guy's technical level is unprecedented. In our era, there has never been such an outstanding boxer who can combine defense and counterattack like him. However, you have your own
Advantages! Physical fitness and the space for continuous training are something others don’t have.”
At this point, he was a little solemn: "Xiao, you need a strong sparring partner. Dustin Poirier and Connor are not real boxers, and the effect of your training with them is very poor! Although your skills have improved a lot now,
It’s fast, but the space palm perception in the boxing ring is not good, you need a lot of actual combat! High-intensity actual combat!”
Hearing Old D'Amato's urging, Xiao Yong said helplessly: "I still want to wait until next month to refresh and see. I don't have many fear points left."
D'Amato shook his head and said: "No, you must have an expert sparring partner!"
Xiao Yong laughed: "Actually, I think I have made great progress in training with them these days! I will definitely win the game!"
Under D'Amato's training, Xiao Yong's boxing skills improved really quickly.
Because Xiao Yong's own talent is the learning and application of tricks.
D'Amato's boxing system is actually very distinctive.
Attack! Attack! Attack!
In many cases, offense is used instead of defense.
Xiao Yong can even feel his progress in these days of training, so he is very optimistic now!
D'Amato shook his head and said: "You have a very good understanding, and you learn and master techniques very quickly, but you have to know that our style of play, to a certain extent, is restrained by that guy. That guy has
With his excellent wingspan and short body, he has excellent distance control in defense. It is very difficult for you to attack effectively and break through his defense. In this case, you must keep very fast.
Rhythm, continuous high pressure! In fact, the most rational way is to use the same fighting style as him, but that is not what I am good at! If the current situation continues, mastering the ring space is very important! So I don’t
I don’t think you can be careless, but you still have to cherish all your time!”
Xiao Yong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll see if I can refresh something useful!"
Xiao Yong's ferocious aura at this time only had 38,500 left, which was actually quite a lot.
If converted into fear value, it is more than 30 million.
The main thing is that once good things are released through directional refresh, the price will be hard to say.
"Directed refresh!"
In an instant, Xiao Yong's ferocious aura only had 33,500 left!
This time Xiao Yong is thinking about boxing sparring!
1: Heavyweight boxing champion sparring card (randomly select the heavyweight boxing champions of the four major boxing organizations in history as sparring partners, consuming 7000 fierce energy)
This was directly ruled out by Xiao Yong.
Because most of the heavyweight boxing champions, not to mention their skills, are tall and powerful, even as a sparring partner, they have to find someone with a similar build to Mayweather.
2: The Pacquiao sparring card can activate Peak Pacquiao to enter the system space for sparring, which consumes 10,000 vicious energy!
Looking at this option, Xiao Yong fell into deep thought. Is it useful?
It certainly does, but how should I put it? It doesn’t seem to have much effect.
Pacquiao is different from Mayweather in that his nickname is the Asian Destroyer and his style is more offensive.
If you choose him as a sparring partner, the more important thing is to learn his attacks and fighting styles.
3: The system generates a sparring card (the host can set the height, arm span, body weight, and technical style by himself, and the system randomly generates a sparring partner. The technical level of the sparring partner is benchmarked against the current boxing champion. A single card has 20,000 vicious energy!)
4: Super boxing champion training card (any retired historical boxing champion can be designated as the host sparring partner. The sparring time is one month and the fierce energy consumption is 100,000!)
When he saw the fourth card, Xiao Yong was ecstatic.
With this thing, wouldn't it be possible to directly designate Mayweather as his training opponent?
I've been fighting him for a month, can't I beat him in real life?
What a pity, this ferocious spirit costs directly one hundred thousand!
This number is simply something Xiao Yong cannot afford.
One hundred thousand vicious auras would cost 100 million fear points.
Although Xiao Yong's fear value is still growing now, the maximum fear value in a day is about 10,000 points.
Judging from this growth rate, it will take years and months to reach 100 million.
And Xiao Yong quickly put this idea behind him.
He found that after the initial excitement, he didn't want to do it.
To put it simply, fighting against every master in real life is an extremely rare opportunity, which makes Xiao Yong extremely excited.
It’s like opening a blind box!
The unknown results and the intermediate process are what Xiao Yong is looking forward to.
Not just to win.
If he really beat Mayweather countless times in the system space, then in reality he would win a 100% victory.
Xiao Yong suddenly felt boring!
So he turned his attention to the option of system-generated sparring partners.
The technical level is comparable to the current boxing champion, that’s not bad!
Soon, a dark-skinned black man appeared in the dream space of the system.
Obviously, Xiao Yong has a real opponent!
An opponent at the level of an active boxing champion!
But there are many boxing champions, but there is only one Mayweather!
It is still unknown how much this system of sparring can help Xiao Yong do.
On the other side, in Mayweather's villa, this guy is also preparing for a fight!
Standing in front of him was a black boxer with a height of 17cm and a wingspan of 19cm!
The same is to simulate Xiao Yong’s height and wingspan!
"How do you think that guy will fight?" Mayweather looked at his coaching team!
Mayweather's coaching team should not be underestimated either.
Among them are Gerald Tucker, the 1996 Olympic bronze medalist, and heavyweight boxer Nate Jones. He won the gold medal at that Olympics and is now Mayweather's assistant coach.
At the same time, the coaching team is also coached by his uncle Roger and father Floyd Sr. Mayweather has been coached by his uncle Roger until 2013 when he appointed his father as the head coach. Roger is still one of the coaches.
one.
Mayweather's father Floyd Sr. said softly: "I think that guy should be able to use his height and wingspan to control and score points! Judging from his matches in the UFC, this guy is a very cunning guy. He likes
Use your own strengths to attack your opponent's weaknesses. Compared with you, his height and wingspan are at an advantage. If he wants to win, he should focus on long-distance control and RBI!"
Mayweather said in deep thought: "But that guy's punches are very heavy and he has a record of all-final finishes. He still needs to be on guard. In terms of weight on the spot, I should be at a disadvantage. I need to train hard during this period."
Strategically, he despises his enemies, and tactically, he values them. Mayweather is very serious.
But he is very confident. The match with Conor gave him an understanding of UFC players.
Because these boxers have a lot to learn, it is difficult for them to compete with professional boxing champions based solely on their boxing skills.
Even though he has retired, even though he is almost forty years old, this kind of opponent is still out of the question!
At the same time, on the other side, inside Golden Boy Company.
Alvarez looked at De La Hoya and said with great dissatisfaction: "De La Hoya, before you said you wanted Xiao Yong to fight me, why did he go to compete with Mayweather?"
He is really unhappy!
After all, it was De La Hoya who proposed to arrange a match between him and Xiao Yong last time.
As a result, it was later said that Xiao Yong did not plan to play in the competition for the time being!
no problem!
When Xiao Yong won the lightweight championship and set a record of more than 3 million PPV sales, Alvarez began to actively ask for a cross-border fight with Xiao Yong.
After all, Mayweather and Conor are making money right in front of them!
But in the end, Xiao Yong and Mayweather officially announced the news of the match and completely ignored him.
He was in a very unhappy mood, and was a little angry at Hoya.
After all, De La Hoya is also Xiao Yong's agent.
De La Hoya was helpless and said: "Xiao wants to fight Mayweather, and Mayweather also wants to fight him. I am just an agent. I have no decision-making power. You can't point your fingers at me to make a decision. In this way, if Xiao Yong
If you beat Mayweather, I will discuss with him a match with you."
This is the only commitment De La Hoya can make at the moment.
But it's clear that Alvarez isn't happy with this.
In fact, since Mayweather retired, Alvarez has been in an unbeatable state.
But his worth has never been able to rise.
So he is very anxious, he wants to make a lot of money!
Like Mayweather!
Although his current appearance fee is about 30 million US dollars, he is still not satisfied.
"De La Hoya, you should know how strong Mayweather is. You have lost to him, and I have lost to him. Xiao Yong is just an MMA boxer. There is no way he can beat that monkey!"
The only defeat in Alvarez's career so far is to Mayweather, so he knows very well how strong Mayweather is!
Hoya also sighed secretly.
In fact, he was not optimistic about Xiao Yong, especially since Xiao Yong actually joined the crew after accepting the match with Mayweather.
This made him a little dissatisfied!
If the two parties don't have a betting agreement, that's okay, but it also involves a PPV betting agreement between the two parties, which may involve tens of millions of dollars in income.
To him, it's also millions of dollars.
He is not rich enough to ignore such a sum of money.
"There will always be opportunities!" De La Hoya can only try his best to comfort Alvarez: "As long as you continue to win, sooner or later you will be able to achieve a higher value!"
"Huh, Hoya, let me tell you, I can't wait any longer."
Seeing that the pressure was ineffective, Alvarez stood up and left.
Seeing him turning away and leaving, Hoya felt a surge of anger in his heart.
In fact, in recent times, Alvarez has expressed a lot of dissatisfaction with the company, such as some game arrangements, such as the selection of coaches, and some signing matters.
Alvarez complained multiple times.
De La Hoya has actually roughly guessed what Alvarez was thinking.
This guy wants to go solo!
If the wings are stiff, they will naturally not be so obedient.
Compared to Xiao Yong, De La Hoya put in more effort in Alvarez's growth.
This guy was unearthed from the Mexico Junior Championships, and his subsequent training and shaping of his technical style and style of play all depended on De La Hoya's help and advice.
So when Alvarez frequently expressed his dissatisfaction with the company recently, De La Hoya was still reluctant to face it.
"I hope Xiao Yong can win, otherwise once the right to cross-border challenge is lost, it will be difficult for Ava to deal with it."
De La Hoya rubbed his brow, took out his phone and called Xiao Yong: "Xiao, do you need me to arrange some boxing coaches and sparring partners for you? That guy Mayweather is not easy to deal with!"
In this regard, he is the authority.
In his opinion, Xiao Yong needs to be more serious.
